Until It Breaks
Datsik Lyrics

It goes a one, two, three
The song will start with a basic counting chant

With the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
The singer is confident and focused, with great energy

I don't need to sweat it when the competition come
The singer knows he is good and does not worry about competition

Original style, like an eight of eight drum
The singer has his own unique style that will set him apart from others

So I don't run the track, no, I make the track run
The singer is confident in his abilities and will control the track with his music

My momma taught me words, my daddy built rockets
The singer comes from a family of intelligence and creativity

I hold 'em both together now, tell me what I got
The singer has inherited the creativity and intelligence of both parents

It's a pretty small weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
The singer's talent is a powerful tool that he can use to his advantage

But learn to respect it cause you clearly can't stop it
The singer's talent cannot be stopped and should be respected

It ain't over cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
There are always obstacles and dangers to face, from both sides

And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
No matter what you do, there will always be someone trying to take you down

It really doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right
It doesn't matter if you make mistakes or make the right choices

Cause once they get their teeth in nothing really fights
Once someone has a hold of you, it's hard to fight back

And razzle me I do it like I got nothing to lose
The singer is taking risks without fear of losing everything

And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
Others may talk and try to replace him, but they never will

But steady little soldier, I ain't standing next to you
The singer is confident in his own abilities and does not need others to stand beside him

I can lay it on the ground before you're even in my view
The singer is so fast and ahead of the game, he will succeed before others try to stop him

Give me the strength of the rising sun
The singer wants the strength to rise and be great

Give me the truth of the words unsung
The singer wants to uncover and bring to light the unknown or hidden truth

And when the last bells ring, the poor men sing
When there is nothing left, there is only sadness and mourning

Bring me to kingdom come
The singer wants to reach great heights of achievement and success

This is something for your people on the block to
The song is for people from the singer's neighborhood

Blackout and rock to, give you what you need
The song will be intense and give listeners what they want and need

Like Papa, who shot ya
The singer is comparable to a father figure who made a big impact or change

Seperate the weak from the obsolete
Get rid of the weak and those who are no longer useful

You're meek, I creep hard on impostors
The singer is confident and strong, while others may be weak and fake

And switch styles on the dime, quick-witted y'all
The singer can change styles quickly and is smart and quick-witted

Quit tripping, I don't have time for your crying
The singer doesn't have time for others who are crying or complaining

I grind tough, sucka, make your mind up
The singer works hard and is determined, while others may be weak and indecisive

Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up?
Are you going to take action and be successful, or just stand in line with the others?

Bang, bang, little monkey man playing
The singer is calling out someone who is insignificant and childish

With the big guns only get you slain
If someone tries to compete with the singer, they will be defeated

I ain't playing, I'm just saying
The singer is serious and straightforward about what he's saying

You ain't got a sliver of a chance
Others have no chance of succeeding when compared to the singer

I get ill or I deliver while you quiver in your parents
The singer is able to succeed while others are afraid or dependent on their parents

So shake, shake down, money, here's the break down
Money is important, but the singer will break down the importance and value of it

You can play the bank, I'ma play the bank take down
The singer will take down the banks and financial institutions

And no mistakes now I'm coming to get you
The singer is serious and will come after those who oppose him

I'm just a Banksy, you're a Brainwash, get the picture?
The singer is unique and original, while others may be influenced or manipulated

We swim against the rising waves
The singer is fighting against the odds and difficulties

That crash against the shore
The difficulties are constant and nonstop

The body bends until it breaks
The singer will keep going until he can't go anymore

The early morning sings no more
The morning used to bring hope, but now it doesn't

So rest your head
The singer is telling himself to take a break

It's time to sleep
It's time to rest and recharge

And dream of what's in store
The singer has big dreams for his future

And sings again no more
The hope and energy is gone

'Cause time has torn the flesh away
Time has taken away the energy and optimism

The early morning sings no more
The morning no longer brings hope or promise
